The cube consist of a single measure group that contains the following measures:

Total Quantity On Hand

Average Quantity On Hand

The measure group has a single partition that uses the MOLAP storage mode.

You need to modify the cube design to ensure that the Total Quantity On Hand measure is updated in real-time and that Average Quantity On Hand measure is updated hourly.

What should you do?

A.

Change the storage mode of the partition to use proactive caching with minimum latency.

B.

Create an XMLA script that will process the cube and then use SQL Server Agent to execute the script continuously.

C.

Create
a new measure group for the Average Quantity On Hand measure. Configure the storage mode for the new measure group’s partition to ROLAP.

D.

Create a new measure group for the Total Quantity On Hand measure. Configure the storage mode for the new measure group’s partition to ROLAP.

Correct Answer: D

QUESTION 112

Which project types should you use? (Each answer presents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.)

A.

A tabular project that uses the In-Memory query mode

B.

A tabular project that uses the DirectQuery query mode

C.

A multidimensional project that uses the MOLAP storage mode and proactive cache

D.

A multidimensional project that uses the ROLAP storage mode and columnstore indexes

A PowerPivot workbook that is deployed to Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010

Correct Answer: ABE

QUESTION 116

You work in the Business Intelligence (BI) department of a multinational company.

To share its sales data between the various subsidiaries, the company has requested a new corporate BI solution that meets the following requirements:

The model must incrementally add 10 million fact rows of sales data per month.

The model must be translated to English, German, Chinese, or Spanish based on users’ locale.

The model must be able to contain the most recent 36 months of data, in order to let users query the data.

You need to select the appropriate model type and partitioning strategy to meet the requirements.

What should you do? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)

A.

Create and deploy a BISM multidimensional model with one partition for all of the data.

B.

Create and deploy a BISM tabular model with one partition for each of the 36 months.

C.

Create and deploy a BISM multidimensional model with one partition for each of the 36 months.

D.

Create and deploy a BISM tabular model with one partition for all of the data.

Correct Answer: C

QUESTION 117

A multidimensional SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) database will be tested next week. During the test period, users will access the database for 30 days. Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) queries generated during the test period must represent the variety of queries that will be used in the production environment. After testing completes, you need to implement aggregations for every partition in the solution while minimizing development effort. You need to ensure that the aggregations are optimal. What should you do? (More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.)

A.

Set up a query log and record all user queries during the test period. After completion of the test, use the Usage Based Optimization Wizard to define aggregations for each partition.

B.

During the test period, identify long-running queries by using SQL Server Profiler. Use those queries to design aggregations by using the DesignAggregations command in XML

for Analysis (XMLA).

C.

During the test period, run SQL Server Profiler for 10 minutes every day and record all queries executed in those 10 minutes. Use the Aggregation Design Wizard to design the aggregations.

D.

Develop a SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) package by using a Script task and then use Analysis Management Objects (AMO) to design the aggregations.

Correct Answer: D

QUESTION 118

HOTSPOT

You are developing a SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) cube for the accounts department. You create a measure group named Exchange Rate that consists of measures pertaining to currency exchange rates. One of the measures in this group is named Average Rate and it will be used to report the average currency exchange rate over time. Currently the AggregationFunction property for the Average Rate measure is set to Sum. You need to ensure that Average Rate measure reports the average of the currency exchange rate over time. Which value should you select for the AggregationFunction property for the Average Rate measure? To answer, select the appropriate setting in the answer area.
